    A few days ago I had a ticket to sit in the window seat. Both guys were sitting in the row before I got there. Guy in the aisle got up but the guy in the middle seat moved over into the window seat rather than get up and let me in. Would you say anything or would you just sit in the middle?

    Side note: I think he smelt like alcohol although there is a slight chance it was cologne. He was getting belligerent when we landed because the crew wouldn't let us off because there was lightning in the area which supports my belief he was drunk.

    If I requested a window seat I would definitely say something. Middle seats suck and are for people who procrastinated on getting their ticket. If it was a short flight like LA to Vegas or something I probably let it slide depending on my mood at the time, but not on a long flight.

    yeah, now that I think about it doubt I'm letting it go even on a short flight. I'd be pissed

    My rationale was I didn't want to cause a situation over something stupid with a guy who right away I thought seemed a bit tipsy when I'm gonna be sitting next to them for over 3 hours.

    Assume that I'm someone who could care less where I sit, I should still call the guy out on it even though it would make me feel no more or less comfortable during the flight?

    lol at letting him sit in the window seat while you allow yourself to sit in the middle. fuck that. im telling the dude all day to get back into his seat



    brag, i had this seat and leg room coming to nicaragua. and the 20 rows behind me were empty as well. pretty much the best flight ever.

    I was reolying to op... I love that seat in your photo and get it any time I can. I fly a lot and always get Exit seat window or any window immediately upon booking. No way OP can be real if he didn't say 'that's my seat' and then sit there.

    definitely would have just said "oh, i'm in the window seat" as i started to show my ticket... if the guys really wanted me to then I would switch to the aisle, but definitely wouldn't sit bitch

    As a passive and non-confrontational person, even I would make sure I got the window seat.

    Easy choice of actions, tell him in a kind manner that you wanna sit in your assigned seat, second choice go to a flight attendant. If he's angry about any of this you can rule out going to the restroom at all during the flight.
